House Republicans are slated to elect a leadership team, including re-nominating Mike Johnson for speaker, and meet with President-elect Donnld Trump.

WASHINGTON—President-elect Donald Trump endorsed House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) to remain in his post, moving Wednesday to unify GOP lawmakers and avoid a replay of the leadership drama that dragged down the party over the past two years.

While Mike Johnson has no serious challenger, he faces dissent within his ranks, particularly from hard-right conservatives and the Freedom Caucus.
